Motivational Interviewing (MI)
Cherilyn Schutze Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, MEd., LPC, CCTTP, EMDR trained
I believe therapy works best when it is rooted in trust, authenticity, and honest connection. My goal is to create a space where you feel genuinely understood and supported—while also gently challenged toward the growth and healing you are seeking.
Clients often describe me as warm, insightful, direct, and deeply engaged in the therapeutic process. I value authenticity in the therapy room and believe meaningful change happens when we are willing to look honestly at both the pain you carry and the patterns that may be keeping you stuck.
My approach balances emotional depth with practical guidance. I want clients to leave therapy with more than insight alone—I want them to develop the self-understanding, emotional clarity, and practical tools needed to create lasting change in their lives and relationships.
It is a privilege to walk alongside clients as they do the courageous work of healing old wounds, growing in self-awareness, and becoming more fully themselves.

Vada Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
At Vada Counseling, all of our therapists are queer and/or trans, and we bring that lived experience into every session. We understand the realities you’re navigating, and you won't have to explain, defend, or translate your identity or experiences. Our work is grounded in liberation, cultural humility, and care that rejects pathologizing frameworks.
We focus on collaborative, transparent therapy where consent, autonomy, and shared power lead the way. Clients come to us when they want support that recognizes trauma, identity, and systemic harm without losing sight of individual strengths and self-determination. If you’re looking for care rooted in decolonizing and anti-carceral values, Vada Counseling offers a space where you can simply be, and be understood.
